Dario Scardapane, known for his work on Netflix's Marvel series The Punisher, has been chosen as the new showrunner for Marvel Studios' Daredevil television series. The show is currently undergoing a creative overhaul, and Scardapane will play a key role in shaping its direction.

Having recently directed episodes of Loki season two, Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead have been brought on board to helm the remaining episodes of Daredevil's first season on Disney+.

Originally, Daredevil: Born Again was in the midst of production in New York when it was halted due to a writers and actors strike. Upon reviewing the footage, Marvel executives decided to take the series in a new creative direction. Chris Ord and Matt Corman, who were initially leading the project as head writers, have since departed.

While some scenes and episodes that have already been shot will be retained, other serialized elements will be introduced to enhance the storytelling. Scardapane will be responsible for writing the new episodes and incorporating the existing footage.

Benson and Moorhead will bring this first season to a close as they take on the role of directing the new episodes. The exact number of episodes for this season is yet to be determined. Corman and Ord will remain involved as executive producers, contributing their expertise to the series.

Well very glad to see Jon Bernthal back as Punisher, because he's a superb Punisher, kinda figured they recast him, like I heard that somewhere already, anyways I just keep getting more excited about this show, so cool.

Deadline has some on-the-set images of Jon Bernthal reprising his role as Frank Castle (aka Punisher) in the upcoming Marvel/Disney+ series, Daredevil: Born Again. The set photos show Bernthal's Punisher standing next to Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock in New York City where filming is currently taking place.

Yeah not sure how much I like this Bullseye costume, kinda looks well dollarstore G.I. Joe, but probably that's the outfit he starts with and it's supposed to be kinda low budget cobbled together, he probably upgrades, I do like that he's suited up though, The Daredevil costume is looking mighty Deadpool-eque from the images I saw, is it cool, it's fine, just doesn't really seem very DD, no DD emblem, a bit too much tactical look...the bright red is cool though.

This show and DP 3 are what I'm looking forward to the most from Marvel's current schedule.

True. I was also hoping they would find a way to incorporate the daredevil Logo on the chest . I think they could find a way to incorporate it without it looking to out of place. I still think it's a slight improvement on the Netflix suit too be fair . Also on second look the bullseye costume does kinda have the half circle bullseye rings on the chest.. they are black against blue and fairy subtle but they are there . It could definitely still use a more prominent one somewhere else on the outfit though

Yeah it's a bit weird without the logo. I do like the brighter red on the daredevil suit though

Agreed on the DD suit. I still think they went too far on the textures and different layers. I'd like to see it simplified to be closer to the actual costume. I've never understood the MCUs obsession with the hexagonal pattern on all clothing.

Has anyone else seen the pictures of Bullseye's new costume? Yay that he's actually in a costume on a superhero show, but boo no bullseye on Bullseyes costume. Of course they have to miss the mark. It's blue and black and just looks like a random SWAT team member. It's cool that he has knives and holsters all over though. Better than nothing, but not really screaming Bullseye to me.

Looked like some bad Snake-Eyes Cosplayer to me
